The Rosewill Blackhawk Ultra is a massive tower chassis, one of the few capable of accommodating 4-CPU motherboards (with some modification required). It comes with a wide range of fans, some of which have red glowing LEDs, but in most of the systems where we use it here at Puget Systems we remove the stock fans and replace them with models that are higher-quality, non-lit, and ramp speed based on system temperatures.
The case has several USB 2.0 and 3.0 ports on the top, along with an area where a bare hard drive can slide in to connect with the computer. This is a very convenient way to connect a drive, but not all motherboards will be able to accommodate the full set of connections available on the front of the case.

We use this chassis for our quad CPU builds. I've built in this case a couple times and can say that it's great for what we use it for. Something to be aware of though, this thing really is MASSIVE. Like, probably won't fit on your desk big. We do a fair bit of modification to it to get the Supermicro X10QBL-4CT to fit but, for the effort, you get a powerhouse system that would normally have to be stored in a rack.
